Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SoftBarcode at none against PDF Converter's 4. SoftBarcode also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.0). PDF Converter's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
